Krum's low score caused dissatisfaction among some Quidditch fans, but the four referees collectively gave it seven points. He was not Albert, he did not have so many supporters, and Bagman's explanation was fine.
.
Krum let the nest of dragon eggs be scrapped, and dragon eggs are very precious, so it is normal for some points to be deducted.
"Okay, let us welcome the last warrior, the youngest warrior in history, Harry Potter from Hogwarts." Bagman shouted happily.
However, after Harry Potter entered the competition venue, the auditorium was enveloped in a chaotic noise. Some spectators began to curse Harry with vicious words, and some even threw objects at the competition venue.
If Albert is the most popular warrior, then Harry is the least popular warrior.
"Oh my God, stop it," Bagman screamed, trying to stop people from throwing things at Harry.
"When did Potter become so unpopular?" Albert was a little surprised by the savior's poor reputation.
"This matter is mainly related to Slytherin." Lee Jordan heard Albert's words and said helplessly, "Those guys deliberately aroused everyone's envy and jealousy of Harry, and they also distributed it to everyone for free.
Badge that smells bad. In fact, they also wanted to discredit you, but you had too many supporters, so they had to give up in the end."
Speaking of the changes in Hogwarts, no one knows it better than Lee Jordan, who likes to ask around for gossip.
"Most people are not idiots who don't know right from wrong." Albert found it difficult to understand what those people were thinking. "Do they just believe what others say?"
"Don't tell me, there are quite a few people like this." Li Jordan felt a little embarrassed when he talked about this matter. He was actually like this before, but after becoming friends with Albert, he began to learn to think proactively about problems.
He knew very well that most students were just jealous of Harry and just started to make noises along with everyone else.
Many times, Slytherin students take the lead in stirring up trouble, including throwing things on the field now, which are also good things they do.
No one knew whose boots fell on Harry Potter's feet with a "pop" sound, and a layer of inexplicable embarrassment suddenly enveloped the competition field.
"A student of Slytherin?" Albert murmured: "It is indeed their style. If it were me, I would probably hang the guy who made the badge to dry for two days first!"
Katrina looked at Harry Potter holding a wand on the field, frowned and asked, "What is Potter doing, casting some kind of magic? It seems to have no effect. Is he too nervous that the magic has failed?"
"It didn't work. What he just used should be the Flying Curse."
"Flying Curse, how do you know?" Several people around him cast inquiring glances at Albert.
"Maybe he's summoning his broomstick. I've also thought about using that tactic." Albert took some popcorn from the paper cup and threw it into his mouth. Of course, he wouldn't say that this was his idea for Harry.
.
"Then why don't you use it yourself?" Katrina asked curiously. She knew that Albert was also a very good seeker.
The reason why Albert gave up using a broomstick was more because he was worried that he could not fly fast enough to sweep the six stars. If he also had a firebolt, he would naturally not mind riding a broomstick to easily get the golden egg through the fire dragon.
"Harry Potter got on his broomstick and flew!" Bagman shouted at the top of his voice from the referee's seat. "As the youngest warrior, Harry is undoubtedly at a disadvantage compared to other warriors, but he used
Use your own smart brain to make up for your shortcomings and give full play to your own advantages."
Just as Bagman was yelling, Harry easily dodged the Hungarian Horntail's breath amidst everyone's exclamations and screams.
"My God, he flies so well!" Bagman shouted. "Did you see that, Mr. Krum?"
Above the playing field, Harry was implementing his plan step by step. He hovered over the Hungarian Horntail and threw a stun spell at it. The Hungarian Horntail must be lured out of the nest, otherwise he would never be able to access the eggs.
The trick is to keep harassing it. The fire dragon has always had a bad temper, so he will definitely not be able to bear the provocation and come after him. Then the opportunity will come.
The Hungarian Horntail was forced too hard and opened its mouth to breathe at Harry again, but Harry deftly dodged it again.
The fire dragon let out an angry roar in annoyance, spread its wings and chased Harry, but it didn't know that it had been fooled.
When the Hungarian Horntail left the nest to chase Harry, he was led by Harry riding a Firebolt and slipped around in the sky. When the time came, Harry suddenly accelerated and dived towards the Fire Dragon's lair.
When Harry flew over the nest, he successfully obtained the golden egg.
"Look!" Bagman yelled, "Look! Our youngest warrior successfully got the golden egg!"
The entire competition venue suddenly burst into flames. People were shouting, screaming, applauding, and the sound was deafening.
However, Harry, who was so overwhelmed with joy, did not realize that the Hungarian Horntail was already chasing him.
Seeing that damn thief dared to steal his own eggs, the Hungarian Horntail was extremely angry. The dragon's breath almost burned the oncoming Harry to ashes, and almost ignited the branch of the Firebolt.
This time, Harry paid the price for his negligence. Although he dodged the oncoming breath, he failed to avoid the Hungarian Horntail's tail, and his whole body and broom were violently pulled away from him.
A long spike from the Hungarian Horntail's tail pierced Harry's shoulder, soaking his robes with blood.
Harry felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, but he still clamped the Firebolt tightly with his legs, preventing himself from falling. The audience's screams filled his ears, and he was in a trance. He accelerated again and shook off
Hungarian Horntail trying to attack again.
The dragon tamers have already rushed over, trying to calm down the hornet's anger.
Harry looked at the Hungarian Horntails entangled by the dragon tamers and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and began to descend towards the entrance of the venue.
He still has lingering fears, and the wound on his shoulder is very deep. If the injury was at that time... he would have been too careless, otherwise he would not have been injured at all.
However, I finally passed the first project and survived successfully.
After Harry landed smoothly on the ground, Professor McGonagall, Hagrid, Sirius and Lupine hurried over to greet him.
"Okay, let's talk later. Potter now needs to go to the first aid tent to find Madam Pomfrey." Professor McGonagall loudly interrupted what several people wanted to say, and led Harry towards the first aid tent.
The first aid tent was near the entrance of the venue. Madam Pomfrey was standing at the entrance of the tent. After discovering that Harry was injured, she pulled him into the tent for treatment.
Madam Pomfrey completely cured Harry's serious injuries in just a few minutes. For a healer, ordinary injuries can be easily cured by using magic. The real trouble is actually caused by those injuries.
Injuries caused by magic.
"You succeeded Harry." Sirius walked into the medical tent and said to Harry, "It would be better if you could be more careful in the end."
"Okay Sirius, it will be great if Harry can complete the first project." Lupine didn't have much idea. For him, Harry's safety was more important.
"I did get carried away in the end." Harry carefully checked the healing of his wounds and reflected on himself, "I should have been more careful."
"Harry, it's great that you're okay!"
Ron and Hermione hurried into the medical tent and breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Harry was fine.
"Okay, let's go see your scores." Sirius noticed Madam Pomfrey's gaze and smiled and motioned for everyone to go to the stage to see the final scores.
"Harry, you had a chance to get full marks." Ron said regretfully, "However, you were injured in the end, so some points will probably be deducted."
"Anyone got perfect scores?" Harry asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Full marks for Albert." Hermione said with admiration, "He easily subdued the fire dragon in just a few minutes."
"Conquer the dragon?" Harry repeated.
"Literally." Sirius comforted, "You don't need to compare with him, that guy can't be considered a student at all. He came to participate in the Triwizard Tournament purely to bully others."
After the group of them returned to the stands, Harry noticed that the people around him looked at him with complicated eyes. He ignored the others and turned his gaze to the referee's seat, only to find that Karkaroff was not there.
Perhaps sensing Harry's doubtful gaze, Hermione recounted the terrible things Karkaroff had done and the chaos that had occurred previously.
Harry couldn't help but widen his eyes. It was hard to imagine that someone could really lose face for the sake of victory. Karkaroff was kicked out of the referee's seat, which was purely his own fault.
Harry's final score was 45 points, with Bagman giving it 10 points, Dumbledore and Crouch giving it 9 points, and Madame Maxime giving it 8 points.
"I'm very happy that the first project has ended successfully." Bagman cleared his throat and said, "Now please come to the tent, warriors. I have something to say to the warriors."
"Bagman probably wanted to talk about the second project."
Albert glanced at the golden egg in his hand. He remembered that this thing seemed to have to be in the water to hear the secret hidden in the golden egg.
"Then I'll go back first." Isobel kissed Albert's cheek and said, "Your college will probably hold a celebration banquet, so you'd better not be absent."
"Ask Bit to send the photos to my dormitory." Albert reminded.
Looking at Albert's leaving back, Isobel turned her head and said to Katrina, "You don't mind walking with me!"
"Is something wrong?" Katrina raised her eyebrows.
"We sisters haven't had a good chat for a long time." Isobel said as she gestured to Katrina to walk away.
Albert was unaware of the topic of the McDougal sisters' chat. When he arrived at the tent, everyone was already waiting for him in the tent.
"Everyone is here," Ludo Bagman said cheerfully, "I only have a few words to say."
"First of all, you all did a great job!"
"Also, the second project will start at 9:30 a.m. on February 24 next year." Ludo Bagman took the golden egg from Albert's hand and specially gave some tips to the warriors, "Before that,
, you can rest for a long time, so we have left you a riddle. As long as you solve the clues in the egg, you will know what the second project is and prepare in advance!"
riddle?
Harry looked at Albert suspiciously. He felt that this man didn't need to solve the puzzle at all. He could easily figure out what the second project was by just looking at his crystal ball.
After Bagman signaled that they could leave, Krum did not leave immediately, but walked directly to Albert.
"I'm sorry about Karkaroff, but that's his personal opinion and does not represent Durmstrang." Krum pointedly put all the problems on Karkaroff.
To be honest, many people don't understand how he became the principal."
"Well, then you don't need to spend any more time understanding the reason. Karkaroff will no longer be your principal soon." Albert said calmly.
Krum was in a daze, not understanding what this meant.
When Albert walked out of the tent, only Shanna was waiting for him outside.
Where are they?
"I was exchanging money for everyone, and those three guys took this opportunity to make a lot of money." Shanna said with a smile, "You look so handsome in this outfit."
"Thank you, let's go back!"
"Is that golden egg also part of the game?" Shanna noticed the golden egg in Albert's hand and asked curiously.
"Yes, this is a riddle." Albert handed the golden egg to Shanna and said, "It is used to kill time for the warriors."
"I dare say the riddle won't stump you." Shanna made an opening gesture.
"At the celebration banquet in the evening, a golden egg will definitely be opened, and it will definitely give everyone a surprise." Albert said meaningfully.
"Surprise, I'm looking forward to it." Shanna waited for the surprise that Albert said at the celebration party in the evening.
The golden egg is empty and contains nothing, but as long as it is opened, an extremely terrifying, high-pitched scream will come out from inside.
"Is this the surprise you were talking about?" Shanna raised her wine glass angrily and lightly touched it with the wine glass in Albert's hand.
"Isn't it a surprise?" Albert joked with a smile.
"You already knew this?" Shanna raised her eyebrows and asked, "What is that sound? Is it the performance of the Ghost Band?"
"That should be the song of the fish-man."
"The singing voice of the fishmen?" Zannah's eyes widened in disbelief, "I dare say no one will hire their singers."
"That's not the point." Albert took a sip of butterbeer, looked at Hermione and asked, "Is something okay Hermione?"
"The second item is in the water?" Hermione asked.
"To be precise, it should be in the lake." Albert corrected.
"You are very generous. I dare say she will definitely tell this secret to Potter." Zannah reminded.
"Everyone is cheating anyway, and sooner or later they will figure out the secret of the golden egg." Albert didn't care. He actually let Hermione know on purpose. If possible, he didn't want Barty Jr. to get the Marauder's Map.
